/**
 * A utility for performing a chained comparison statement. For example:
 * 
   {@code
 *
 *   public int compareTo(Foo that) {
 *     return ComparisonChain.start()
 *         .compare(this.aString, that.aString)
 *         .compare(this.anInt, that.anInt)
 *         .compare(this.anEnum, that.anEnum, Ordering.natural().nullsLast())
 *         .result();
 *   }}
* *

The value of this expression will have the same sign as the first * nonzero comparison result in the chain, or will be zero if every * comparison result was zero. * *

Performance note: Even though the {@code ComparisonChain} caller always * invokes its {@code compare} methods unconditionally, the {@code * ComparisonChain} implementation stops calling its inputs' {@link * Comparable#compareTo compareTo} and {@link Comparator#compare compare} * methods as soon as one of them returns a nonzero result. This optimization is * typically important only in the presence of expensive {@code compareTo} and * {@code compare} implementations. * *
